📝 Please note:
This setup guide is for Scale accounts only.
You will still need to add people to your Trainual account for them to be active in your account and for the SSO login to be effective. Learn how to add new teammates here!
Set up Google SSO (single sign-on) so your whole team can use Google credentials to sign in to Trainual in just a few clicks.

Part 1: Register Trainual in your Google Cloud account.
Part 2: Connect Trainual to your Google Cloud.
✨ Part 1 ✨

Step 3

Click the "+Create Credentials" button at the top of the page.

➡ Custom Domain URL: https://app.insert-your-custom-domain-here.com/users/auth/google_oauth2/callback
Step 9
